Okay, so I’ve been thinking about getting a septum piercing for a while now. I finally decided to do it. I went online and started doing some research about it. The internet was a mixed bag of opinions. Some people were all about septum piercings, saying how cool and edgy they are. Others, not so much. They were saying it makes people look like bulls or that it’s just plain unattractive. It was tough to get a clear picture.
After all that online back-and-forth, I thought, “Screw it, I’m going to see for myself.” I bought one of those fake septum rings you can just clip on. I wore it around for a few days, you know, to test the waters. I asked my friends and family what they thought. Some of them loved it, thought it suited me. Others were like, “Nah, it’s not really your style.” So, even with people I knew, it was still pretty 50/50.
But I wasn’t going to let other people’s opinions make the decision for me. I liked how it looked, so I finally went for it. I found a reputable piercing place in town and booked an appointment. When I got there, the piercer was really professional. They explained the whole process, how to take care of it, what to expect.
The piercing itself was a quick pinch. Didn’t hurt as much as I thought it would, honestly. They put in a simple horseshoe ring to start with. I have to say, looking in the mirror, I was pretty happy with it. It felt like me, you know?
Now, it’s been about two months since I got it done. It’s healing up nicely. No issues so far. I’ve even switched out the jewelry a couple of times. There are so many options out there. It’s kind of fun to mix it up.
- First, I did a bunch of online research.
- Second, I tried a fake septum ring.
- Third, I went to a professional piercer.
- Fourth, I got the piercing done.
- Finally, I’ve been taking care of it and enjoying my new look.
At the end of the day, whether septum piercings are “attractive” or not is totally subjective. What matters is that I like it, and it makes me feel good. That’s what really counts, right?
My Takeaway
Don’t let other people’s opinions dictate what you do with your body. If you want to try something, go for it! It’s your life, your style.
